“…Therefore, according to recently adopted European guidelines to scrotal imaging, sonographic follow-up is not advised in patients with isolated TML. 15,22 Similarly, a recent US study by Keenan et al 23 using a simulated cost-calculating algorithm concluded that sonographic surveillance is costly and nonefficient for such patients. Testicular self-examination is more efficient and thus recommended.…”

Sonographic evaluation is the gold standard in diagnosing of testicular microlithiasis, the nature of which has raised controversy in opinions regarding its premalignant or benign tendency. Testicular microlithiasis is often an incidental finding on sonographic examination with indications for other disease processes, and it may or may not require additional follow-up. This pathology has raised equal interest among domestic and foreign researchers, and studies have been performed on both adult and pediatric populations, yet there is no standard recommendation for followup care of testicular microlithiasis. Isolated testicular microlithiasis and that with additional risk factors may require different approaches to testing and care. In this publication, a case study is reviewed and two approaches to follow-up care of testicular microlithiasis based on the associated risk factors or a lack of thereof are discussed.
